Yes, there's more than a few Trump factors to consider throughout this process...sorry, but it's true...
‘We’re NOT gonna OWN it’ – Trump says he’s going to let Obamacare FAIL
So if Obamacare is allowed to become entrenched under Republicans, we know that ALL the characters pictured are to blame at this vital moment...
They've all known that repealing this monstrosity was the first step towards better solutions for health care. They just haven't wanted to relinquish control back into the hands of Americans, because too many find themselves too much like their counterparts on Capitol Hill. And finally now that they've exhausted their inoperable control schemes, they're being forced top-down to send the repeal-only order back through Congress. This should be no problem to achieve...but for these Republican squishes who never wanted Obamacare's Planned Parenthood & Medicare subsidies, nor Medicaid expansion, to go away, namely Murkowski, Collins and Capito. But neither McConnell (or Ryan for that matter) nor Trump have led in this effort to dismantle the socialistic primer of Obamacare and return health care to free market solutions. You can't just fix Obamacare, and you certainly can't just let it fail on its own b/c that's precisely what it was designed to do: fail & take out the private market (across the entire industry, insurance and care) with it, thus presenting the government with the opportunity to 'save the day' with an even more socialist single payer system!
It disgusts me to witness how after an overwhelming rejection of the Democratic Party, we're still at the will of leadership that refuses to listen to the Will of the People in the preservation and protection of our inalienable, natural rights.
ADDENDUM: If leadership doesn't turtle out, we might just get this betrayal on record...
